Bang bang bang...!!!

At this time, the two people in the secret room were already fighting fiercely.

The cultivation level of both parties is mid-level eighth-level warrior, and their martial arts skills also come from the same Wuling Academy.

In a conventional fight as in the past, they were almost evenly matched.

However, at this time, the bucktoothed man was clearly at a disadvantage in terms of weapons.

That feeling was like holding a wooden sword and fighting against a metal rod, neither strong nor weak.

Finally, in a fierce collision, the long sword in the bucktoothed man's hand was instantly broken by the Haotian Xuan Stick.

The powerful force was so powerful that the bucktoothed man took a few steps back.

Meng Hou's eyes turned cold, and taking advantage of this opportunity, he grasped the Haotian Xuan Stick in his hand and stabbed it out suddenly.

The hard rod head hit the bucktoothed man's chest hard.

"Bang!"

There was a loud thud, and the bucktoothed man's ribs suddenly burst and caved in, and blood spurted out.

Immediately, his body hit the stone wall behind him heavily and he suddenly collapsed to the ground.

“You don’t know your own limitations!”

Meng Hou came closer holding a stick.

"As a person, you should not be too greedy. If you kneel down and beg for mercy now, I might consider sparing your life for the sake of your classmates."

There was a hint of mockery on Meng Hou's lips as he stared at the bucktoothed man with a cold gaze, obviously intending to kill him.

"Kill me if you want to. No need to say it so nicely. I curse you to die a miserable death!"

The buck-toothed man had a face full of resentment, and he seemed to have some understanding of Meng Hou's character.

He said this just to play a trick on him before killing him.

"In that case, then it's as you wish."

Hearing this, Meng Hou narrowed his eyes and said coldly.

The moment the voice fell, he swung down with the Haotian Mysterious Stick in his hand.

The bucktoothed man's head suddenly exploded like a watermelon.

White brain matter mixed with blood and splattered everywhere, and with the smashed head, the scene was quite bloody.

Meng Hou glanced at the corpse, his face full of cruelty.

In the past, when he was in Wuling Academy in the outside world, due to the many rules and restrictions, if he had a dispute with any student in the academy, he could only endure it and could not do whatever he wanted.

However, in this enclosed space of the ancient battlefield, the situation is completely different.

He liked this form of competition very much. Even if they were students from the same academy, he could kill them whenever he wanted, without any restrictions!

"The Lingyang Stones I just used up are all gone, so I'm just using yours to make up the number."

Meng Hou glanced at the storage ring on the corpse's right hand and smiled coldly.

He immediately bent down and was about to take off the storage ring, but was surprised to find a small green snake coiled on the palm of the corpse.

This snake is extremely small, like a wire, with fine scales all over its body and a triangular head, which looks a bit cute.

"Strange, why is there a snake beast here?"

A hint of doubt flashed in Meng Hou's eyes as he looked at the little green snake.

Seeing its tiny body, he was not overly wary and tapped it casually with the Haotian Xuan Stick in his hand.

But at this moment, Qinglin suddenly jumped up, leaped onto the iron rod, and quickly crawled along the rod towards Meng Hou's palm at an extremely fast speed.

As it crawled, its snake body grew strangely larger and soon wrapped around the entire Haotian Xuan Rod.

"What?!"

The sudden change caused Meng Hou's pupils to tremble violently.

Seeing the strange snake grinning and biting at him, he instinctively let go in fear and broke away from the Haotian Xuan Stick.

Bang!

The Haotian Black Stick fell to the ground, and Qinglin immediately wrapped it around his tail and dragged it away.

"Asshole!"

Seeing this, the shock in Meng Hou's eyes suddenly turned into anger.

A long sword flashed in his hand and he chased after him.

“Swish!”

But at this moment, Meng Hou noticed a black light flying towards him quickly from the corner of his eye.

Looking closely, it turned out to be a praying mantis with black flames all over its body!

After experiencing Qing Lin’s change just now, he dared not be careless this time. He immediately swept the sword in his hand diagonally.

clang!

Suddenly, a crisp sound like the sound of metal clashing rang out.

The Mantis King's pair of forelimbs, like long swords, chopped fiercely on the sword blade.

As the flames splashed, the powerful force directly knocked Meng Hou back.

“What a powerful force!”

Meng Hou was suddenly shocked.

Obviously, no one expected that a tiny mantis could have such terrifying power!

That level of strength is comparable to that of a ninth-level warrior.

If it was just now, with a magical weapon like the Haotian Xuanbang, he would be fully confident of dealing with the Mantis King.

But now, I have lost all my confidence.

Meng Hou looked at the Mantis King with horror, then turned his gaze to the Haotian Xuan Stick that was being dragged to the door of the secret room by Qing Lin, feeling both shocked and angry.

"No, we must get the artifact back!"

Seeing that the Haotian Xuan Stick was about to be dragged away, Meng Hou suddenly became anxious. He ignored the threat posed by the Mantis King and immediately chased after it.

However, at this moment, as soon as he took a step, he felt a pain in his ankle.

When he looked down, he was shocked to find a strange little animal had appeared under his feet.

Its entire body is dark, with claws and a tail, and it looks like a fly, but also like a spider.

It was Lin Hao’s ace pet killer, Jing Ke!

Under the erosion of the deadly poison, Meng Hou's body trembled violently, and the spiritual power in his body seemed to be hollowed out, completely stagnant and unable to be mobilized.

Swish——!

At this time, Meng Hou was horrified to find that the black flame mantis was swooping down again.

He hurriedly raised his sword to block, but his speed was no match for the Mantis King's attack speed.

A cold light flashed past, and a blood mark instantly appeared on Meng Hou's neck.

The double trauma of the poison and the cut throat undoubtedly made him lose all his fighting power and he collapsed directly to the ground.

Before I closed my eyes, I suddenly saw a figure appear at the door of the secret room.

He was not unfamiliar with the man's attire. It was exactly the contestant from Tianyan Academy whom he met at the entrance of the tower stairs before.

"How could it be... him?!"

Meng Hou had a look of shock on his face, staring at Lin Hao.

At the door of the secret room, Lin Hao bent down and picked up the Haotian Xuan Stick.

Feeling the surging energy fluctuations contained in it, he nodded secretly.

Soon, Lin Hao walked into the room, looked at Meng Hou lying in a pool of blood, and said indifferently: "This weapon is really good. Thank you for your hard work."

"you……"

After hearing this, Meng Hou was suddenly unable to breathe and died completely in shock and anger.

Until his death, he could not believe that he would be stabbed to death by three small animals.

The real mastermind turned out to be the contestant from Tianyan Academy whom he had never taken seriously!

At this time, Jing Ke flew towards the two corpses on the ground. When he flew again, he flicked his tail and handed two storage rings to Lin Hao.

"good."

Lin Hao smiled indifferently, reached out to take the storage ring, and put all the Mantis King and the others into the system backpack space.

Immediately, he mobilized a strand of mental power and quickly probed into the two storage rings. A look of surprise suddenly appeared on his face.

Because he discovered that the family backgrounds of these two people were extremely rich.

Just in the storage ring of the bucktoothed man, there are about 70,000 Lingyang Stones!

There are also a wide variety of other natural treasures, most of which were obtained in ancient battlefields.

As for Meng Hou's storage ring, although the Lingyang stones inside had been used up before to infuse the formation runes.

But the treasures inside are extremely rare.

He flipped his palm lightly, and a crystal-clear fruit suddenly appeared in his palm...
